One Less Reason
Your Beautiful Ending
[Verse 1]
I heard you say
That you don't feel like you're worth saving
If it's all the same
Well, you can put the blame on me
I looked into your eyes to find the light
I've been gone for years
And there are only tears left
But it came so soon
1983 on a Monday afternoon

[Chorus]
Don't make it better for me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
Everyone is here for you

[Verse 2]
Your life is beautiful and
You better hold me down
Stand me up, keep me safe while I'm falling to pieces and
And tell me how, I should bid if all I've known is to break
You didn't have to lie, I know you tried
You took what they give expecting time to heal you
But it came so soon
It was 3:11 on a Tuesday afternoon
[Chorus]
Don't make it better for me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
Everyone is here for you
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful ending

[Bridge]
No one ever takes your place
No one ever really smiles quite like you
I wish I knew the words to say
Other than goodbye
To this everyday life

It's so much harder for me
'Cause you were so undefended
Oh, I don't think you ever knew
(I don't think you ever knew)
It was so beautiful and

[Chorus]
Don't make it better on me
I wish you'd just stop pretending
We're all here waiting for you
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful ending
This is your beautiful
You were so...
